DESCRIPTION

                                 CHF Organic Chick Starter Grower Mash is a broad spectrum
                                 ration specially formulated for chicks, pullets and meat birds.
                                 Formulated using certified organic grains and protein meals;
                                 the CHF Organic Chick Starter Grower Mash is free from all
                                 forms of medications that may be found in other starter
                                 feeds.

                                 APPLICATION
                                 LAYING HENS
                                 Unlike other starter feeds, the uniquely diverse nature of this
                                 ration  negates the need to change diets from a starter to a
                                 grower (pullet grower) part way through the growing cycle.
        ORGANIC                  This therefore avoids waste and the expense of a separate
         Chicken Starter Grower Crumble
                                 feed, as it can be fed to day old chicks through to point of lay
                                 hens (Approx. 18-20 weeks) or slaughter for broilers.
                                 (Approx. 10 - 12 weeks)It is important to ensure your chicks
                                 have free access to feed and water and are protected from
                                 any harsh environmental conditions.  For very young birds it
                                 is necessary to keep them warm with a specialised heater
                                 lamp (or light), especially during the colder months. For laying
                                 pullets it is also advisable to begin blending the CHF Organic
                                 Chick Starter Grower Mash with your preferred CHF Layer
                                 ration at 16 weeks of age. This will provide the extra calcium
                                 and nutrients to assist with egg production.

                                 MEAT BIRDS
                                 The CHF Organic Chick Starter Grower Mash is equally
                                 adaptable when feeding meat birds, once again avoiding the
                                 need to swap to a grower ration during the growth cycle;
                                 allowing the same feed to be fed until slaughter. (Approx. 12
        ORGANIC                  weeks).
